Unusual PSA flip

[FrankWakefield]

Jon, you're right, I did not see that back, or what is left of the back. Still, I'd give $75 for that, delivered. At that price, and with that back, it would not be as good of a deal for me as I initially perceived. Thanks for posting the back. Still, the card looks fine, screw the slip.

I agree with you Frank - authentic card. (PS - the opening bid is $50, and no one has opened it yet).

[Matthew H]

That card will sell for more than $75.

i know where frank is coming from, i think.
there was a time not that long ago---before the fall of 2008--- when i would've jumped at paying 100, 125, even 150 for that card.
but those times are long gone it seems and i'm with Jon that 75 is about right nowadays and probably for years to come.
with respect to the flip issue, Jon has elucidated it well imho.

best,
barry

A bit nicer in condition but you get the idea:

Ummmmm...that flip is seriously messed.

It doesn't say T206 on it - at all. Why does is say 1911? Anyone else have a PSA T206 that says 1911 on it? I have never seen one.

I doubt that card should be a "1" either. The back looks altered to me. There is a whole lot of inexplicably bold printing over top of areas of obvious paper loss. So how does that happen?

Cheers,
Blair

Ya that is it Turner-I was going to say 200-250.

This is just an old PSA flip-there are way more 206s out there that you can imagine-if you think you have a number in your head-double it.

That is why I started this thread. I had thought I had seen all the various T206 PSA flips; I was wrong. Thanks Jon.

PSA has issues,
Why in heck would they put "Cleveland" on the flip, yet not put "T206"????
They also put 1911 on a card only issued in 1909 (150 series back)... Kooks doing kooky stuff IMO Idiots!

An artist must have added the "P" on the back from what I can see, so this card has edge corner damage, scrapbook damage, and ink added...

worth $74, if that. IMO

I'm still trying to figure out what is up with the back of the card All that paper loss and the "Pi" in "Piedmont" is still there on top of the paper loss?

I believe the word used to describe that (by one former board member), is "underprint."

Thanks Jim. I had to go deep into the archives to find out what "underprint" was ..........still a bit confused- alot of the old scans are gone. From what I gathered, alot of board members weren't "buying" the term
